Halsey / Max

General Notes | Want to adopt this dog? Please do not email us. Please fill out the Adoption Application ASAP. Personality | Notes from the shelter volunteer - Max looked so sad but so calm in his kennel. I took him out into the run, and he just kept looking around everywhere. He is a bit nervous, but so sweet once he warms up to you. He met some doggy friends on leash and was calm and gave soft tail wags. And met a friend through the fence, also sweet and gentle. He seems so confused to be at the shelter. Making friends - https://youtu.be/Y8GlXgyyMRI Inside his kennel - https://youtu.be/hkuTpcQJ_Ec Story | Max, Rudy, Jake and Rocky have a very sad story. They were abandoned in the streets by their owners, and when contacted to let them know their 4 senior dogs were at the shelter, the owners said they no longer want them. Unfortunately this put them at immediate risk of euthanasia at the shelter due to their age and limited capacity. Other Dogs | Friendly, loves to be around other dogs. Cats | Unknown. Children | Training | House trained and well-mannered. Leash | Does not mind the leash. Walks nicely beside you and occasionally stops for sniffs. Activity Level | Medium-low. Still young enough to go on a neighborhood walk or hike but no longer a crazy hyper Labrador Health Notes | Max is neutered, up to date on vaccines and heartworm NEGATIVE!

We encourage you to put in an application even if you don't see your new family member currently, as once you are approved, we can place you on the waiting list for first priority on the selection of the dogs we do bring in. That means you can often meet a dog upon transport arrival and adopt before they even make it to this page!

Your application is good for 90 days from the time of approval for any dog as long as it is a good fit for your family and your lifestyle.
